Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1961,6189 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1961,6189 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 885,201
3 | 885, 201 |
295, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 295 x 67 = 59295
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59295
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1961/885,6189/201 is 1/59295
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 885,201 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(885,201) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(885,201) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(885,201) = ( 885 × 201 ) / 3
LCM(885,201) = 177885 / 3
LCM(885,201) = 59295
